Like This Train - The Mutton Birds

I never thought that it would come to this

To watch myself leaving you behind

But you went to great lengths to clear my way

And like this train, you’ll take a long, long time

To reach the end of the line

Like I did

Like I did

The farms and the rivers slide away out there

These towns all look like our home town

No one could blame you for getting out of there

But like this train, you’ll take a long, long time

To reach the end of the line

Like I did

Like I did

You say they’ll change in time

We won’t feel so strange, but I

I don’t believe you

I don’t believe you

The power lines are dancing overhead

The wind is shaking up the trees

I wish I’d known how I could have made you see

But like this train, you’ll take a long, long time

To reach the end of the line

Like I did

Like I did

Like this train, you’ll take a long, long time

To reach the end of the line

Like I did

Like I did

Like this train

Like this train
